storm weather shanty choir - rolling down to old maui (2024) كلمات أغنية

’tis a rough tough life
full of toil and strife
we whalers undergo

and we don’t give a d_mn
when the gale is done
how hard the winds do blow

so, we’re homeward bound
’tis a d_mn fine sound
with a good ship taut and free

and we don’t give a d_mn
when we drink our rum
with the girls of old maui

once more we sail with a northerly gale
through the ice and sleet and rain
and the coconut fronds on those tropical isles
ah, we soon shall see again

six h_llish months have passed away
in the cold kamchatka sea
but now we’re bound from the arctic ground
rolling down to old maui
rolling down to old maui, me boys
rolling down to old maui
we’re homeward bound from the arctic ground
rolling down to old maui

we’ll heave the lead where old diamondhead
loose up on old wahoo
our masts and yards are sheeted with ice
and our decks are hidden from view

ah, the horrid eyes of the sea_cut ice
now the deck the arctic sea
are miles behind in the frozen wind
when we steer for old maui

how warm the breeze of the tropical seas
now the ice is far astern
them hawaiian maids on the island glades
are awaiting our return

and their big black eyes even now look out
hoping someday they do see
our baggy sails running ‘fore the gales
rolling down to old maui

rolling down to old maui, me boys
rolling down to old maui
we’re homeward bound from the arctic ground
rolling down to old maui
once more we sail with a northerly gale
aye, towards our island home
our main has sprung, and our whaling’s done
and we ain’t got far to roam

our stud’sl booms are carried away
what care we for that sound
a living gale is after us
thank god we’re homeward bound

rolling down to old maui, me boys
rolling down to old maui
we’re homeward bound from the arctic ground
rolling down to old maui

and now we’re anchored in the bay
with kanakas all around
with chats and stuff, aloha way
they greet us homeward bound

and now ashore we’ll have good fun
we’ll paint them beaches red
lying in the arms of hawaiian maids
with a big fat aching head

rolling down to old maui, me boys
rolling down to old maui
we’re homeward bound from the arctic ground
rolling down to old maui
rolling down to old maui, me boys
rolling down to old maui
we’re homeward bound from the arctic ground
rolling down to old maui

we’re homeward bound from the arctic ground
rolling down to old maui
